History Of Victory Fellowship International
All India International Christian Student’s Fellowship is a body of born-again believers with a heavenly vision. The bible says that where there is no vision the people perish. Bearing this in mind, a group of believers, basically Africans, after much prayer and seeking the face of God, launched the fellowship in 1983 December. The primary objective of this fellowship at first was to promote evangelism among university students of various nationalities. Thereafter, its activities were extend to cater for the spiritual needs of the local believers and non-believers as well. At present, the fellowship is made up of believers from different nations of the world beside students.
